This would be the greatest thing ever. Unfortunately Georgia fans don’t care enough about Tennessee to actually make this happen

Red and Orange blend together anyways. And UT girls wear anything from Amber Red to Orange to Black depending on what looks good. I doubt it will look much different than a standard UT game

Just for clarity, I was just quoting the dude...

it's not going to look like anything out of the ordinary. Most of our fans wear read to away games like they should. You'll have maybe a hundred or so folks AT MOST that would wear read but consult teh chart and wear black instead based on their section. That isn't going to show out any different on TV. Then of course the other 70K fans there will be wearing orange.


My comments were specifically directed at what the reality would be even if every UGA fan intended to follow through on the idea...

It's a dumb idea and I don't think anyone is taking it seriously.

I know I'm in agreeance with you. It's not going to look any different than any other UGA game in knoxville with the exception of maybe a handful more black shirts. There isn't going to be anythign remotely resembling a "checker" from our end.


On that note, it's kind of irritating me that our fans have to come up with some asinine shite for every game now. First was the "pink out" for ASU, which I fully and completely realize is not football related and is kind of its own separate thing so give that one a pass. Last week the obese tryhards in the student section tried to start a grassroots blackout campaign for what I can only assume is attention. Now some moron has come up with a plan to somehow get 100K alternating red and black clad UGA fans to an away game. FFS just put on a red shirt and go to the game, any game, regardless of venue. No need to try to come up with some new flavor of the week for hte fans to participate in.

Cool... I assumed as much, but figured I'd double check. We tend to more often than not echo similar sentiments.

Since UT fans don't want to go, we have the leverage or they can just not sell the tickets at any price....


Tickets sites are already decreasing with some tickets half of face and still decreasing.

No way this will happen. Vol fans aren't going to sell their tickets like ND fans did.

look on stubub right now and check out the prices and sections.

It's not going to look like ND becuase this isn't a once in a lifetime trip/vacation like it was then, but UT fans are absolutely selling their tickets and for not even that much

I heard that this originated with the UT administration to rile their fans into attending. It's obvious bullshite.

As of right now, I can get lower level seats for $65 or less with no fees it looks like. Monitoring it this week as we're likely heading up to the area on Friday for a memorial service anyways.

Well yea, but pregame we thought we were getting 30k into DKR



What happened with that? OSU got probably 25k into there in 2006 after the Texas national title. Figured LSU would have gotten around the same % in

Of course it did. If you've watched any of their games, UT fans have been leaving at halftime. UGA fans don't butt chug and we don't checkerboard, that's totall a UT thing. Ugliest end zone in college football to go with the worst fight song.
